Abstract

Fungi have many uses, such as food source, dyes, paper and medicines, as well as objects of scientific, beauty and art interest. Fungi have been widely used as therapeutic substances directly or by extracting active substances in them. Some of them are used in the treatment of skin infections or diseases of the heart, kidneys and urinary tract. The fungus is also abundantly used to specifically detoxify certain irritating substances in the environment or to replace some more toxic agents, such as pesticides. The fungus was known for both the cause and the treatment of the disease.
